“Format Disk” option.
To record a programme, you should rst connect a
USB disk to your TV while the TV is switched off. You
should then switch on the TV to enable the recording
feature.
To use the recording function, you need to connect
a USB disk or an external hard disk drive to the TV
and the connected USB disk should have at least 1GB
capacity and should have 2.0 speed compatibility.
If the connected USB device does not support 2.0
speed, an error message will be displayed.
Note: Recorded programmes are saved into the connected
USB disk. If desired, you can store/copy recordings onto a
computer; however, these les will not be available to be
played on a computer. You can play the recordings only
via your TV.
Note: Lip Sync delay may occur during the timeshifting.
Radio recording is not supported. The TV can record
programmes up to ten hours.
Recorded programmes are split into 4GB partitions.
If the writing speed of the connected USB disk is not
sufcient, the recording may fail and the timeshifting
feature may not be available.
Recordings of HD programmes can occupy more
space on the USB disk compared to SD programmes.
For this reason it is recommended to use a USB hard
disk drive to record HD programmes.
Do not unplug the USB/HDD during a recording. This
may harm the connected USB/HDD.
Multipartiton support is available. A maximum of
two different partitions are supported. If the disk has
more than two partitions, a crash may occur. The
rst partition of the USB disk is used for PVR ready
features. It also must be formatted as the primary
partition to be used for the PVR ready features.
Some stream packets may not be recorded because
of signal problems, so sometimes the video may
freeze during playback.

Connection
A Wireless-N router (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n) with
simultaneous 2.4 and 5 GHz bands is designed
to increase bandwidth. These are optimized for
smoother and faster HD video streaming, file
transfers, and wireless gaming.
Use a LAN connection for quicker file sharing
between other devices like computers.
The frequency and channel differ depending on
the area.
The transmission speed differs depending on the
distance and number of obstructions between the
transmission products, the conguration of these
products, the radio wave conditions, the line trafc,
and the products that you use. The transmission may
also be cut off or may get disconnected depending
on the radio wave conditions, DECT phones, or any
other WiFi 11b appliances. The standard values of
the transmission speed are the theoretical maximum
values for the wireless standards. They are not the
actual speeds of data transmission.
The location where the transmission is most effective
differs depending on the usage environment.
The Wireless LAN adaptor should be connected directly
to the TV’s USB port. USB hubs are not supported.
